Enjoy Life.

What truly beautiful world we live
in! Nature gives US grandeur of noun
tains. glens and oceans, and thousands
OF means of enjoyment. We can desire
no better when in perfect health: but
how often do the majority OF
people feel ike giving il up
disheartened, discouraged and worn
out with disease, when there
is no occasion for this feeling, as every
sufferer can easily obtain satisfactory
proof, that Green's august FIOaUer, Will
make them free from disease, as when
born. Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint
are the direct causes of seventy-fve per
cent. of such maladies as BiIiousness,
Indigestion, Sick Headache, Costive-
ness, Nervous Prostitution, Dizziness of
the Head, Palpitation of the Heart, and
other distressing symptoms. Three
doses of august F20,oeT will prove its
wonderful effect. Sample bottles, 10
cents. Try It.

tHR RECENT ALTERATION.
given to tie slight collision between DrS.
Watson and Purefoy on Tuesday after
noon. We have never seen proper to
notice what involved no, serious eonse-
quences, and that which did not sensibly
"jeopardize the public peace. We have
argued that the memory of such thing,
speedily passes away. and that reconcile
alton is more possible aud speedy than
if the tongue of gossip were fed by the
public journals. Offended law is satisfied
by the penalty imposed upon its viola
tors, and the public concern in the mat
ter ends.
We only refer to it now in the interest
of the Mission Hospital, in whose Welfare
deep and we'll nigh general interest
Las been developed. That interest is
ieopardized when any of its claims tc
confidence are assailed. Among those
claims was the character, experience and
professional prominence ofthe physiciant
and surgeons in charge. Some months
ago the ladies in charge of the Hospital
issued circular in which was announced
the tender of voluntary service by gen.
tlemen well known here, all Of whose
names were connected with experience
and honorable position in institutions ol
duty elsewhere. These services were
very gladly accepted. Among these gen
tlemen was DR.. ]. A. Watson, at one
time resident physician at Bay View
Hospital, Baltimore. This position, al
claimed by DR.. Purefoy. phvsician O
this place, DR.. Watson did not hold; anG
he communicated his opinion, through
another gentleman, in the most offensive
form; resented very naturally, and lead
ing to the collision referred to.
With the motives of DIR. Purefoy II
| making his assertion we have nothing tc
do. We can say, however, that knowing
we'll DIR. Watson ever since he has beer
here, we believe. most thoroughly tina
he is incapable of practicing deception
upon the public, or upon the lady man
ayers of the Hospital, who haxe found II
every instance that this gentlemaR Ma
| worthy of their confidence; GHd worth!
of the reputation sbasedsuRon the expeE
Iience acquired in, another prominen

ton that DR.. Watson is in position

has made. - - .ys-

We are indebted to the Manufac-

handsomely printed, handsomely
bound volume of 4O4 pages under
the above title. Who would have
thought ten years ago that the
South could have furnished mate
raj for such a work? The South
narrowed by the devastating hand
of an armed enemy, impoverished
to the verge of squalor, hopeless,
prospectless, despised, and dis
trusted and feared. Yet the South
to-day is richer than it ever was,
more energetic and enterprizing than
it ever expected to be, with re-
sources it never dreamed it pos
sessed, now the wonder of the capi.
talist and the protector, amazed al
the stupidity which had closed his
eyes in the past. Resources it was
mot credited with, except as,con'
sisting in the great staples of cotton

The Bureau Of Labor Stats.
tics.

Raleigh, N. c., March IS, '87.
Atthe recent session of the legisla,
ture an act was passed creating a
bureau of labor statistics for North
Carolina. Fhe purpose of the bur.
ecu as defined in lhe acts is as fol-
lows:
The said commissioner shall col.
lect information upon the subject Of
labor, its relation to capital, the
hours Of labor, the earnings of labor
ing men and women, their educa>
tional, moral and financial condition
and the best means of promoting
their mental, material, social and
moral prosperity.
The commissioner shall annually
publish report in pamphlet form
and send or cause to be sent copy
OF the same to every newspaper
publisked in this state, a copy to
each member of the general assem-
| bly, of North Carolina, a COPY to-
eae1 gf the seEeral sJates and cousl.-
Ety officers OF the state, q copy to az,
citizen who may apply for the same
either personally or by mail, and
one hundred copies to each OF the
several labor organizations which
may be in existence at the time ofI
the publication Of the report, in this
state. He shall also make a full
report to each session nj the general
assembly nf the inf, ...,rrn ,olIect
ed atlJ C.ri I'll Dy IIlIM ana cuui;t. If
ing such recommendations ms he
may deem calculated to promote
the efficiency of the bureau. The
commissioner is hereby directed 10
endeavor to publish an accurate list
OF all the newspapers published in
the state, and whether the same be
published daily or weekly, and to
forward to each and all a COPY of
his report promptly upon its being
published; he is also directed to
diligently inquire after the labor
organizations of the state and to see
that none are omitted in the distrib- l
utien of the reports; he is further
directed to coLfine his labors to this
state"
From the foregoing it will be seen
that the purpose of the legislature
in establishing the bureau was to
place before the people of our state
as far as the same can he done, the
moral educational and financial con-
dition of the working people of
North Carolina. To do this a great
amount of information must be
gathered from many sources. A
